Peak Shaving - A Method to Reduce Utility Costs
|
| Company: | Baldor Electric Co |
| By thinking out of the box, Baldor Electric Company has been able to save about $1 million a year in energy savings corporate-wide for each of the
last three years. Over $100,000 a year of this savings comes from our Westville, OK plant. This paper will discuss Baldor’s success reducing utility costs at a motor plant in Westville, Oklahoma by working with the local electricity supplier (Ozarks Electric Cooperative Corp) and practicing peak shaving during summer months. |

How a Brushless Motor Operates
|
| Company: | Baldor Electric Co |
| You understand AC motor operation, even a DC motor is relatively easy to figure out. However brushless motor operation is still “medieval science”. The following will lead you out of the dark ages and into today’s modem world – the use of brushless technology. |

How to Interpret Motor Information
|
| Company: | Baldor Electric Co |
| AC motors are generally used in constant speed applications and rated in horsepower. They are specified at a particular speed while delivering a certain horsepower. When specifying a 1 hp AC motor, for example, this means the motor must operate at 1,800 RPM and deliver 35 lb–in. of torque. In these applications, time to speed usually is not a concern. Power is applied and the motor rotates. Whatever time it takes to get to speed is accepted. Fast starting is not a concern. |

The Truth About Energy-Efficient Motors
|
| Company: | SEW-Eurodrive Inc |
| Everyone wants to save energy. It costs less to use less energy. It’s the “green” and “cool” thing to do. And if you are in the market for a motor, the government may soon pay you to replace your inefficient motors with new, energy-efficient NEMA Premium® versions.
So, then, you might think that buying a premium-efficient motor is the answer to your energy usage problems. But you would be overlooking an important fact: an energy-efficient motor is only one piece of the energy savings puzzle. While premium-efficient motors do help to reduce energy usage, they are by no means the cure-all to every energy consumption problem. |

Ethernet Enables The Smart Grid
|
| Company: | Hirschmann Engineering USA Inc |
| The electrical power generation, transmission and distribution system has survived for decades with limited intelligence. But the emergence of independent power producers, green power sources and new regulatory regimes is making it imperative to add smarts to the grid. This white paper will first show how the electric utility landscape has changed over the past few decades, necessitating the smart grid. It will then be shown how Ethernet-based Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems can be used to monitor and control power flowing into and out of the grid. Finally, it will be shown how Ethernet-based SCADA systems can be used to match power inflows and outflows to keep the grid stable. |

Selecting Air Conditioners for Industrial Enclosures
|
| Company: | Rittal Corp. |
| Choosing the right air conditioners for enclosures can have a tremendous impact on the overall performance and efficiency of industrial operations. Proper and efficient air conditioner cooling can significantly prolong the life of installed equipment, save energy and utility costs, and protect against unscheduled downtime. Although cooling is sometimes an afterthought during the course of planning a project at the enclosure layout level, with careful consideration and the right information, it can truly become an asset for increased productivity and profitability. |
